Resample Surface dialog box
The Resample Surface dialog box is used to resample a detected surface at a lower resolution. You may want to do this to:
-
reduce the geometric complexity of the surface (so that it is more compact on disk and in memory and displays faster), or
-
smooth out noise, artifacts and other irregularities in the data.
Note: You cannot use the Resample Surface dialog box to increase the resolution of a surface. If you have resampled a surface and wish to return to a higher resolution you will need to import or re-detect the surface.
To display the Resample Surface dialog box:
-
On the Dataflow window, click a (detected) surface object.
-
On the Shortcut menu select Resample.
-
Specify settings.
-
Click the Resample button.
The Resample Surface dialog box contains the following settings:
|

Description |
|
New object name |
The same of the resampled object. |
|
North-south resolution |
The resolution that will be used to resample the north-south dimension of the surface. |
|
East-west resolution |
The resolution that will be used to resample the east-west dimension of the surface. |
|
Max triangulation distance (m) |
Maximum triangulation distance for resampling. The default is the value specified for the Detect Bottom Surface dialog box. |
